Such anger.
I don't recall claiming to make the world a better place. We've changed our focus since I joined and to be honest I was more excited about the original vision but I'll take corporate file sharing over online advertising any day.
Then again, I'd take life as an itinerant purveyor of french toast and fine liquors over online advertising so I'm hardly representative of the average person in this "industry".
- x0x0 12y agoYou're the one saying employees need to care about the product and team, and disparaging people who just want a paycheck. People going on about cultural fit and missions -- while, of course, having a problem hiring -- make me literally laugh out loud. I'd rather be an itinerant snow bum, personally.
- vonsnowman 12y agoI value coworkers whose company I enjoy and who genuinely care about making customers happy. There's a wide spectrum between detached paycheck collector and over-invested lifer that fails to notice anything outside of work. I have nothing against people on either end, it's just not the kind of work environment I'm looking for. I don't think culture has been a major issue for us when hiring. I merely brought it up as a counterpoint to the "just raise the salary" argument which strikes me as disingenuous.
